South Carolina is “First in the South” to hold a presidential preference primary in 2020. The South Carolina Democratic Presidential Preference Primary was held on February 29, 2020. The South Carolina Republican Party chose not to hold a Presidential Preference Primary this year.

California has some of the most efficient, disability-friendly, and secure ways for eligible voters to cast their vote. This year, for the first time, California is going to be part of “Super Tuesday”. This gives California more relevance and influence in the election than it had in the 2016 presidential primary.

The Nevada Caucuses are the “First in the West Caucus“. The first caucus of every political season is held in Iowa. This year, the Nevada Democratic Party had more than 80 early voting locations and more than 250 Caucus Day locations. The goal was to make the caucus as accessible and expansive as possible.

The Nevada Republican Party chose not to hold a 2020 caucus. On September 7, 2019, ABC News reported that the Nevada GOP voted to opt out of its caucus process, but stopped short of nominating Trump. Instead, state party officials on the central committee will participate in an endorsement vote, which could bind the state’s delegates to the president at a later date.

Pokémon GO began releasing Pokémon from the Unova Region on January 10, 2020. Here is a look at the ones I have caught (so far). This blog post will be updated whenever I catch a Unova Region Pokémon that is new to me.

The screenshot above shows what my Medium stats looked like for the week that started on October 7, 2019, and ended on November 5, 2019. This blog post shows what happened to my stats – and ability to earn money on Medium – after Medium changed its criteria for how it pays writers.

This blog post will never appear on Medium, as I have learned that they do not curate any piece of writing that discusses Medium itself. There’s no point in posting this one over there!

Iowa is the first state to vote in the primaries. In many other states, people vote by going to their polling station, marking their ballot, and handing it in. Iowa has a caucus. (1) One of the things I find interesting about caucuses is that there is plenty of room for unexpected things to happen.
